Abstract

A radio node includes a control section that configures a parameter related to a transmission timing for a synchronization signal block based on units of second time period, the synchronization signal block being transmitted in accordance with a transmission periodicity in the second time period different in length from a first time period, and a transmission section that transmits the parameter configured.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 .- 6 . (canceled) 
     
     
         7 . An Integrated Access and Backhaul (IAB) node, comprising:
 a control section that configures a parameter indicating a frequency for a synchronization signal/physical broadcast channel block (SSB), a parameter indicating a subcarrier spacing (SCS) for the SSB, a parameter indicating a transmission periodicity for the SSB, a parameter indicating a transmission timing offset for the SSB, and a parameter indicating a transmission index pattern for the SSB in SSB transmission configuration information for another IAB node; and   a transmission section that transmits the SSB to the other IAB node based on the SSB transmission configuration information.   
     
     
         8 . The IAB node according to  claim 7 , wherein the control section configures the parameters individually in a plurality of pieces of the SSB transmission configuration information. 
     
     
         9 . The IAB node according to  claim 8 , wherein a maximum number of configurable pieces of the SSB transmission configuration information is predetermined. 
     
     
         10 . The IAB node according to  claim 7 , wherein the transmission periodicity configurable for the SSB includes a periodicity longer than 160 ms. 
     
     
         11 . The IAB node according to  claim 10 , wherein the transmission periodicity for the SSB is configurable to a value longer than a second transmission periodicity for an SSB for a terminal. 
     
     
         12 . The IAB node according to  claim 7 , wherein the transmission timing offset for the SSB is configured in units of half frame. 
     
     
         13 . The IAB node according to  claim 12 , wherein both of the transmission timing offset for the SSB and a second transmission timing offset for an SSB for a terminal are configured in units of half frame. 
     
     
         14 . A radio communication method, comprising steps performed by an Integrated Access and Backhaul (IAB) node of:
 configuring a parameter indicating a frequency for a synchronization signal/physical broadcast channel block (SSB), a parameter indicating a subcarrier spacing (SCS) for the SSB, a parameter indicating a transmission periodicity for the SSB, a parameter indicating a transmission timing offset for the SSB, and a parameter indicating a transmission index pattern for the SSB in SSB transmission configuration information for another IAB node; and   transmitting the SSB to the other IAB node based on the SSB transmission configuration information.
